Perc%nto

I found this restaurant to be extremely disappointing, and I would advise readers to go find somewhere better. I had brought two out-of-town guests for dinner, as we had all attended evensong services at nearby St Pauls and wanted somewhere nearby. When we arrived at 6:30, the restaurant was completely empty, a very bad sign. Furthermore, it had a very sterile, corporate feel to it, not my first choice for atmosphere.

While the food was good--when it finally arrived--the service was atrocious. The 2nd course arrived almost an hour after the first course, with no explanation or apology from the server. Furthermore, we had bought a bottle of white wine, which the server kept back near the bar. That would be fine, apart from we virtually never saw him. We had to walk up to the bar to request that he refill our glasses, and other times we just waited. Service should be a lot more prompt at a place that is distinctly devoid of patrons.

After all that, the service charge was incorporated into the bill, rather than giving us a choice over it. All in all, I was very unhappy.

Why has Perc%nto not received any recent comments? I was site seeing with my family around St Pauls Cathedral and Perc%nto was conveniently situated just next door. The glass windows make the restaurant feel light and airy which is lovely when the sun shines through. The food was very tasty and well presented.

I've eaten here a couple of times. On the plus side it's conveniently located and not particularly expensive by City's standards. However the food is poor and the service very average
